CHURCH AND FAMILY.

To the Editor of the Globe:
/ notice in your editorial this morning on
High License" you say that the church and
family were instituted before sin came into
the world. Are you sure Of this? Are you
prepared to furnish the proofs? II so. will
you be kind enough TO publish them? 1t is
my opinion that sin is far older than either
the church or family. For what was the
church founded? Was it not to combat sin?
II So how could the church be the oldest? I
think you will find it pretty hard to disprove
that the church and family are not Il compro-
mise with sin; for is there not sin in ever
! institution in some shape Or form? The in
situations are not necessarily sinful, but sim
full men and women will get in them in spite
of everything to prevent such to enter, for
the reason that none of us are perfect and
the institutions cannot be. SIN has got to be
tolerated, or else it would. be the death of
every institut on in existence. Yours truly,
St. Paul, Mimi, Jan. %, 1887. j. c. R.
The proof of our assertion that the church
and family were instituted before sin came
into the world is found in the first few
chapters Of the book of Genesis. The be-
ginning of the family relation was when
GOD made woman as helpmeet for man.
And the first religious organization on earth
of which we have any knowledge is when
GOD, as the pastor of his own flock, came
down in the cool of the evening to hold di-
vine service in connection with his two
parishioners who worshiped in the taber-
nacle of Eden

DAKOTA STOCK INTERESTS.


The Dakota legislature does well to de-
vote some time to the consideration OF
measures for the prevention of the introduce
ton of pleuro pneumonia and other conta-
gious diseases into the territory. Although
overshadowed by the great wheat growing
industry, stock raising is one of the re-
sources of the territory almost as valuable
Though the absence of shelter and the
deeper snow fall does not render practic-
able, except in limited portion of the ter
ritory. the running of stock on the range all
winter, the fact that Dakota cattle are shell
tered should induce all the greater care to
be taken in keeping them away from infec-
ton. At large on the range cattle are not
so likely to incur the danger of contamina-
ton as when they are close-herded or
stabbed, and for this reason the most
prevent diseased cattle from being
brought into the territory, where. inter
mingling with other cattle, they would be
sure to spread the infection. During the
driving season many cattle are driven
in from the South over Dakota trails, des-
tined for that territory and Montana also.
Here. perhaps, the chief danger lies. Only
by intelligent cooperation with Montana,
a territory equally interested, and a careful
inspection of all incoming cattle, can the
danger be provided against. The subject is
one which can probably engage the atten-
ton of the Legislatures of both territories
and one the Importance of which the stock
growers should clearly present to them.

The Senate.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-Mr. Edmunds,
in presenting memorial from the manu-
facturerS and business men in Vermont for
a repeal or reduction of internal revenue
taxes, said that many such petitions had
been presented. In presenting this one,
and moving its reference to the committee
Oh finance, he wished to urge on that COM
ttee the Importance of the subject of re-
ducing, if not altogether repeating this
remnant of the uHpleaSantness of twenty
five years ago. He should be glad to see
the country restored to such business condi-
tons as had existed before that time and to
have the resources of the governments OBJ
tanned entirely from impOrtatiOnS and the
little incidental matter of land ETC., instead
OF keeping up an army of internal revenue
tax gatherers, inspectors and all that sort
Of thing. He hoped the committee would
take the matter into serious cOnsidera ton.
Referred to the committee on finance. Mr..
Malone presented numerous petitions
from Virginia manufacturers of, and
dealers in, tobacco for the abolition
of the tobacco tax, and submitted some re-
marks in support of them. On motion of
Mr. Hoar leave was granted to the commit
tee on privileges and elections to sit during
the session, of the senate. Bills were re-
ported from committees and placed on the
calendar as follows:
For securing statistics of the extent and
value of the fishing interests of the United
States; fixing the salaries of the commission
ers of education and dor at So 900: % in

CLOSE OF THE CARNIVAL


This is the last day of st. Paul's second
Ice carnival While in some respects there
have been disappointments. yet taken as a
whole the carnival has been a success. The
management has not been wholly exempt
from criticism, and possibly did not deserve
to be, still the enterprise succeeded, and as
nothing succeeds like success it would be
out of place to find fault now. Thousands
and tens of thousands of strangers have
been attracted to the city by the carnival.
They have gone away not only salts
fed but pleased with what they
saw. The features of the carnival which
attracted most attention and received m ost
COMMUNICATION, were the street illumina-
tons, the pyrotechnic display last Thurs
day evening and the magnificent parade
yesterday afternoon. Without intending
diSparagement to the merits of others who
were active in the management of the car
niyal, it is conceded by universal consent
that General Manager VAN SLYKE de-
serves the highest encomiums for his untir-
Ing energy and capable efforts in bringing
the enterprise up to the successful stand
ard it attained. The people of st. Paul
cannot fail to recognize and appreciate Mr..
VAN SYKES services i'll their behalf

Schwartz was not indicted by the last grand

not seem inclined to clear up. More

That Canal ProiecI.

To the Editor of the Globe.
In a recent issue of your generally correct
paper appeared, under somewhat enlarged
headlines, an article descriptive of a proposed
canal uniting the head waters of the Missis-
sippi via the st, CroiX with those of Lake Su-
perior, by which a cheap transit would be
obtained for large share of the produce of
the Northwest. l saw in the paper to-day q
memorial had passed the house asking COD
greSs TO consiuer an appropriation. to further
the same project. While I realize that it
would be folly to prevent the legislature from
advertising US to the world as tools, in this as
well as in other matters, feeling of kindness
for the GLOBE, and a desire to prevent its
being imposed upon, prompts me to say that
when the project was born, some ten or a
dozen years since, its warmest advocates
were those who were charged with the ex-
penditure of the appropriation for the sur
vey. Armed with implement that were bet
ter calculated to capture game and lure the
Speckled beauties from their native pools
than to measure distances and determine
levels, this corps of distinguished engineers
Journeyed northward, never stopping until
the appropriation was exhausted. In ascend
ing the mighty st. Crox ~, which is spoken
of so confidently as one of the avenues of
commerce, they were frequently compelled
to pack their birch bark canoes for mi,es, on
account of the scarcity of water The
report submitted subsequently was so vague
ana unSatiSta factory that the legislature re-
fused to make any further appropriation in
the matter. There are men here who will
readily recall the fact that when the scheme
was first started, it was then claimed that the
low water in the Upper Mississippi could be
obviated and navigation assured by the use of
the said canal, which ton paper) would tap
Lake Superior and obtain therefrom sufficient
water for all purposes of navigation as before
stated. Just how that could be Accomplished.
however, does not appear inasmuch as the
line of levels and profile of the St. Paul & Du-
luth railroad ST ow that the ordinary water
mark in the Mississippi at st. Paul is some
sixty odd feet above the level of Lake Sune
rior, from which the water was to be drawn.
There are men who, from their intimate
knowledge of the region through which the
proposed canal would iun, that will tell you
truthfully that the lakes referred to in tbe
reports made by the said surve, ors amount TO
nothing for the purposes of lockage water.
The writer has crossed the Upper ST. Croix
when there was not water enough in the
stream to fill tea kettle, and as matter of
fact if all the water resources of the whole
divide where the lockage would be mostly
required were combined, it would still be in

Mr.. JORDAN WILL RESIGN.
He Gets Too Little For His Work,
And Has a New Opening.
River and Harbor Bi1l--Yesterday in
Congress.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-It is now set
tied that G. n. Jordan, treasurer of the
United States, will relnQuish his present
Office May in order to accept an Office,
probably the presidency of the Western
National bank, of the city of New York, an
institution now in process of organization,
and which will be fully established by that
date. Mr., Jordan has not yet formally re-
signed but expects to do so shortly after
the adjournment of congress. 1t is under
stood that the change in office involves de-
cided increase in salary. the exact amount
of which is not stated. The salary of
treasurer is SIS. 900 per year. The new Of
flee. 1t is said Will pay at least $4,000 per
annum. Mr.. Jordan regards the treasur-
er's salary as wholly inadequate to the du-
ties and responsibilities of the Office. and
does not think it proper that the extra SER
vices rendered by that officer for the ma
tional banks and as sinking fund commits
sioner for the District of Columbia should
continue to be rendered gratis, as under

THE IMMIGRATION BOARD.

There is an apparent disposition on the
part of the legislature to abolish the State
Board of immigration, under the impress
sion that the usefulness of the board is at
an end. Whether or not the legislature is
justified in this opinion we are not prepared
to discuss in this connection, but of one
thing we are assured, and that is the board
has rendered valuable service In the past.
There has. perhaps, been more value re-
ceived from the board of immigration in
proportion to the amount of money eX-
pended than from any other feature of pub
lie expenditure. The entire amount of
money expended by this state in inducing
immigration has been $3.50 Of this
amount S62, 900 had been expended before
the state board of immigration was Or
gained. The board was organized under
the law of 1879, and during the eight years
of its existence has expended $50, 900, with
a claim of 81, l54 yet unpaid, making a
total expense of S37. 154, or less than So, 600
per year. The annual increase of popula-
ton during those eight years has averaged
about65. 600, or nearly twice as much as that
of any former period. And the immigrants
have Dteu oil exceptionally SOOu class
off people, the bulk OF them being people
from older states of the Union, men OF
means and energy. They have largely been
induced to come to Minnesota through the
efforts made by the Board of Immigration.
During the eight years of its existence the
board has printed 100000 pamphlets. 20o,-
OoD folder maps. 10000 descriptions of
different sections of the state. 43, 900 circu-
lars and about 100 columns of newspaper
matter. In addition to that the secretary
of the board has written several thousand
letters answering inquiries made by cor
respondents who desired information con-
corning Minnesota, and thus thousands and
tens of thousands of frst-class people have
been induced to make their homes in this
state who would not have come here but for
the agency of this board 1t is for the
legislature to determine whether or not
this work shall terminate now. But one
thing should be borne in mind, and that is
